There are always innovations in equestrian sports and riding leggings are one of them. These new breeches are largely made of elastane. Therefore it is very elastic and offers a lot of freedom of movement, similar to yoga pants or jogging pants. Like classic women's breeches, the riding leggings are tight, but very comfortable and very comfortable to wear. Most riding leggings do without zippers, buttons and belt loops. Therefore, the fit is particularly important. Of course, the riding leggings must not slip.
These modern breeches are not only sporty and very stylish, they usually also have a mobile phone pocket on the thigh. In terms of functionality, riding leggings usually offer a moisture-wicking and very breathable fabric. The trimming is also made of silicone, which offers optimal grip in the saddle. The leg ends are elastic and without Velcro fasteners, so they fit snugly to the rider's leg. This is important so that the trousers do not pinch in the boot. Riding leggings are a variant of breeches, but much more elastic and comparable to yoga pants.
The riding leggings are suitable for women of all ages. If the material of the pants is very thin, however, every dent and every pound will show up too much. Therefore, this type of riding clothing is more likely to be bought by very slim women. Meanwhile there are also riding leggings made of figure-shaping materials. These compression materials shape the rider's contours. You should simply try out whether riding leggings suit you. Since there are several models in equestrian sport, you are sure to find the right trousers for you.
The trimmings on riding leggings are made of silicone and are attached to the stretch material in dots. The full seat or knee seat is non-slip but easy to move. Some brands make you feel like you're glued to the saddle, while other brands' silicone trim is comparable to the grip of leather trim.
Probably the best-known manufacturer of riding leggings is eaSt. The original eaSt Reggings® offer a moisture-wicking, highly elastic material that offers great freedom of movement. In addition, the material forms the contours. Seams are avoided as much as possible eventto avoid chafing. The cuff at the ankle has grip strips to prevent the Reggings® from riding up. The trim promises a high level of grip in the saddle. This riding clothing is more like designer trousers because the look is timeless and simple.
Kingsland has also been making riding leggings for women for some time. The material is with many Kingsland Riding leggings a little thicker than other brands, but this also conceals more. Also offers Kingsland also riding leggings with belt loops on the cuffs. So you can enjoy the advantage of this type of breeches, even if the cuffs are actually too wide.
Another manufacturer of riding leggings for women is Pikeur. In addition to the wide range of breeches, the Westphalian equestrian sport company also offers a mix of both types. The advantage of the stretchy material, the mobile phone pocket on the thigh is combined with a zipper, buttons and belt loops. Of course there are also Pikeur riding leggings with the typical wide waistband.
Of course, many other manufacturers now also offer their own riding leggings. Among others Waldhausen ELT, Cavallo, Ariat, HV Polo, Imperial Riding or Schockemöhle Sports.
Riding leggings for women have been gaining in popularity for some time. Thin fabrics are an advantage, especially in summer, otherwise you will quickly sweat on the horse. Airy and comfortable summer breeches are then a must. Full-seat breeches with grip trim are also good for warm temperatures, as the fabric lets more air through than leather or imitation leather trim. The functional material of many riding leggings and grip breeches transports sweat and moisture effectively to the outside, in contrast to cotton. You should also choose lighter colors like taupe, light gray or cream. These light colors stay cooler in the sun than dark colors like black, navy or dark brown.
We are often asked whether riding leggings can also be worn in winter. That depends on the temperature sensitivity of the rider. You should also ask yourself whether you go on horseback rides a lot or whether you can train in the sheltered indoor riding arena. On particularly cold days you might therefore prefer to wear lined riding clothing. The manufacturers have reacted to this and also produce winter riding leggings. These are usually lined with a fleece material. The outer fabric is also different, for example softshell. Softshell not only protects better against wind, it is also mostly dirt-repellent. However, the functionality and wearing comfort do not suffer from the thicker material. So if you don't want to do without movement-friendly riding leggings, take a look at the winter models from the various manufacturers.
